I would like to see another CB before we go QB. We have Bradford and Hill no need to go early for a back up QB
Agreed. Secondary,OG,WR,LB....BPA of course.
I want David Fales but without a 5th rounder i dont know.

can someone explain why Yankey is still out there?

Poor measurables. Some inconsistencies in his game. Should have gone before a number of these OGs. IMO, he's a poor man's DeCastro.

EDIT: Yikes, should have gone before Linder for sure.

From Bob McGinn:
7. DAVID YANKEY, Stanford (6-5½, 316, 5.49, 3-4) – Fourth-year junior with 26 starts at LG and 14 at LT. "A real battler," said one scout. "Generally a good anchor. Gets careless with head duck and will lunge. A Stanford kid will do what he needs to do to be successful." Smart (Wonderlic of 30), has 34-inch arms and adequate strength. "He's consistent at being inconsistent," another scout said. "There's a lot of want there, but I just think he's nonathletic. He's a stiff guy. That bothers me. But you know what? There's so many in the league like that. I don't like him." From Roswell, Ga. "I must not know what the heck I'm doing," a third scout said. "He's one of the most disappointing guys I saw. I see that guy get pushed around, then he ran 5.5 at the combine. You've got to be kidding me. Free agent."

Newsflash: Browns WR Nate Burleson broke his arm today. Gordon is about to be suspended. Browns have yet to draft a WR. Looks like Manziel is going to have to pass to Manziel this year.

I think he might fall to us. If I were trading up, it'd be for a CB like Nevin Lawson.(to get out ahead of the 4th round CB run that I expect is coming)

IMO, the run on OGs is about to end.

So the Browns trade up and get a RB........

Yeah I wasn't saying we should take a QB with our 4th Rd pick I was asking people what positions did we think the team would try and get next.

Totally forgot about that name.. but I remember during the draft process, people said he looked bad during his workouts and he looked physically soft with bad body composition. I also remember if I'm not mistaken his senior bowl workouts were underwhelming. I didn't like what I saw and I hope we don't take him.
